		deceased estates
At death the estate of the deceased person is frozen, and no-one may withdraw funds from the deceased’s bank accounts or deal with any of the estate assets without the necessary permission from the Master of the High Court.
If the deceased was married in community of property, the joint estate is frozen. This situation often creates hardship for the surviving spouse, especially where the bank accounts were all in the name of the joint estate or in the name of the deceased.
We will attend to the administration of the deceased estate in a professional manner.
